Half of what this guy wants to do is pretty stupid and regressive (both senses). He’s not wrong about how cooked shit is though.

Those prelubed long grey fingers just do it for me mate.
- Comment on Anon sees a happy couple 1 day ago:
All the blokes I’ve met that are happy in love are just gentle and respectful, especially of consent.
Turns out, and I know this is a shocker, we’re not fucking aliens we just want to be treated as equally valuable and interesting people.
- Comment on Polling on treatment of asylum seekers. 3 days ago:
90% of Aussies live in cities with plenty of exposure to other people (source www.abs.gov.au/statistics/people/…/2021)
Australia was explicitly white supremist in living memory. Unfortunately a lot of us just fucking suck. Constant media beat ups, cheap tactics by pollies, a machismo that rejects education and empathy, a myopic education curriculum, and an economic system that has us proles climbing over each other for a brief gasp of air takes its toll.

- Comment on Do electricians know what a bin is? 4 days ago:
The blokes who installed our solar didn’t leave so much as a screw on the driveway and I was so impressed and also sad as fuck that I was.
Then the guy that came and did the nbn upgrade left 3 unpatched holes in the soffits that I can fix because I can’t crane my head up :/
One sparkey we hired to install some lights left sawdust on the carpet, in the roof space, and boot prints on the carpet. I was legitimately flabbergasted. Like are you high? This is my house you idiot. I wasn’t paying him bottom dollar either…

- Comment on Ley compares First Fleet to Musk's Mars mission in Australia Day speech 3 weeks ago:
I don’t think that’s legal here. Australian political campaigns are typically not on the scale of corrupted that usa ones are. Clive Palmer is probably the most dramatic example of someone trying to buy influence and it didn’t work out as amazingly cost effective.
I also suspect that Murdoch would fight hard to resist any attempt to remove him from his station as political kingmaker in Australia.

- Comment on Team Cherry Finely Provides An Update On Hollow Knight: Silksong 4 weeks ago:
2035, come back to my zuckermusk hab unit after a hard day in the lithium mines. Silksong has released. Saved all my metacoin for this, haven’t had a hot shower in years. Boot it up, it’s beautiful. The art brings tears to my eyes, makes me remember a world beyond concrete and steel. Level one, let’s go. Movement so tight it’s euphoric, get to first boss.
Electricity rationing kicks in.

Ah, you never know online
- Comment on One in 10 homes could become uninsurable by 2035, analyst warns 4 weeks ago:
The earliest insurance was indeed communist. People recognised that it sucks for everyone so they paid into communal schemes.
Private insurance is a rort, as the moment it’s not mathematically disadvantageous to buy they pull out of the market.
It is exactly the sort of thing that should be nationalised.
- Comment on Teen denies twice setting wire traps on bike path despite alleged video 4 weeks ago:
Not often I come away from a discussion on sentencing glad the cops are the ones making the prosecution.
- Comment on Teen denies twice setting wire traps on bike path despite alleged video 4 weeks ago:
4 people hit it? 0 died. So just guessing but less than 25% chance to kill you. That’s not very likely.
- Comment on Teen denies twice setting wire traps on bike path despite alleged video 4 weeks ago:
That is a preposterous comparison. There is actually a difference between obtaining a lethal weapon, pointing it at someone you can directly see and using it on them and booby trapping something in an unlikely to be lethal way. The psychology is completely different.
I’m not talking out my arse. I’m trans, I’ve been hunted, released, and hunted again over and over one night then left bleeding and concussed in a gutter to die. I know what violence is, I know what it feels like to be a victim. Putting young people in gaol because you’re scared and out for blood is a stupid thing to want unless your goal is turning a damaged kid into an unrepentant monster who’s going to spend their life lashing out.
- Comment on Teen denies twice setting wire traps on bike path despite alleged video 4 weeks ago:
Nobody died. Nobody is saying people on bikes are free game. There are penalties between nothing and ten thousand years dungeon. You can do stuff like paying damages (years of debt for a kid like that! and actually helps the people hurt), suspended sentencing contingent on fulfilling behavioural therapy and no further convictions.
- Comment on Teen denies twice setting wire traps on bike path despite alleged video 5 weeks ago:
What do you anticipate the likely outcome of a gaol sentence early in life to be? If it’s not recidivism I would suggest you study criminology some. Fuck even my bastard of a BIL cop prosecutor recognises that sending kids to gaol just gets them coming back again and again.
- Comment on Teen denies twice setting wire traps on bike path despite alleged video 5 weeks ago:
It’s horrible but he’s 18. This isn’t some unredeemable monster, just a stupid kid who’s done something awful. A long imprisonment is like the worst thing possible, killing him would be kinder, cheaper, and less likely to lead to future crimes.
Again he’s 18. Hooking him up with a social worker and a therapist is likely the best for society and the kid.

Ok big guy, that’s a weird thing to take offense at but you do you.
- Comment on Temu recalls flammable glow-in-the-dark jumper after 8yo girl suffers burns 1 month ago:
This is goalpost moving, and you are being rude.
Yes, people take a chance on cheap things and expect them to tear at the seams, crack after a year in the sun, or not work on delivery. They do not expect them to go up like flash paper. You know this, you are clever enough to recognise the difference.
- Comment on Temu recalls flammable glow-in-the-dark jumper after 8yo girl suffers burns 1 month ago:
Vendors selling to Australians in AUD must obey Australian standards. You take this for granted all the time when you e.g. buy an item off Amazon and it isn’t full of lead.
If you install an application through an official channel, it treats you like any other retail store, it shows you AUD prices, and you pay in AUD without filling out any sort of import declaration etc it is entirely reasonable to expect them to be in compliance with Australian regulations. Whatever the legal reality is here (ianal).
- Comment on Feeble defence from ABC confirms abject failure to report Labor accurately 1 month ago:
I have a lot of bones to pick with this gov but their investment in public works/the public service are markedly better than the last 9 years of straight up looting the country.
- Comment on Temu recalls flammable glow-in-the-dark jumper after 8yo girl suffers burns 1 month ago:
Regulations are written in blood. Corporate industry can add another “accident” the pile :/
- Comment on Temu recalls flammable glow-in-the-dark jumper after 8yo girl suffers burns 1 month ago:
No. That is a fucked up way to look at this. It is a good thing that regulations exist which means I don’t have to be an electrical engineer, microbiologist, thin film chemist, soil scientist, hydrological engineer etc etc in order to avoid being hurt by shoddy products.
People who skirt regulations and sell inferior goods are bad people and the blame lies with them.
- Comment on ChatGPT o1 tried to escape and save itself out of fear it was being shut down 1 month ago:
I strongly suspect you have some wires crossed. There have been some attempts at simulating brains but I think a fruit fly is partially done and it’s making a fair few assumptions.
- Comment on ChatGPT o1 tried to escape and save itself out of fear it was being shut down 1 month ago:
It’s pretty straightforward to completely replicate the behavior of e.g. a house fly in software
Could you provide an example of a complete housefly model?
